Hello Parents! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I’m excited for this week as the weather looks like it’s warming up. Please note that Friday, March 12th is no school for the kids because teachers have professional development. Please remember to complete the daily attestations each morning prior to coming to school.
This week we will continue with letters, numbers and sight words. We will be learning the letter Ww and we will continue reviewing the numbers 1-20 through number recognition using ten frames. Please continue to practice last week’s sight words – “a” and “green.” The sight words for this week are “and” and “red”. We will start a new theme this week – Growing Up Healthy. Our first topic will focus on “Our Senses” with the big idea that my five senses will help me explore the world. The vocabulary words we will learn this week are: senses, hear, sound, see, sight, smell, taste and touch. We will read the books “Look, Listen and Learn” and “My Five Senses.” We will focus on the shapes Oval, Rectangle, and Rhombus for math.
This week’s Scholastic Weekly Reader, titled “Can You Taste the Rain” will continue our discussions about the month of March as we explore weather with our five senses. We will also learn about Zacchaeus this week during Jesus Time.
